@serahni  Post 47463 — I’ve read that Dollard say there *was* a short scene between Clara’s collapse on the stones and the Doctor closing the outer door in which he demanded that Ashildr leave Rigsy his memory so that upon return to normal London, Rigsy can have Clara’s body looked after and her family and the school be informed about her death.…[Read more]

Also when the raven entered Clara’s body, there was an intense light. There was no such light when the street person died.

Thanks to your pointing this out, I made a point of looking for this on tonight’s rewatch and saw it, as well. I’m hoping it’s significant … much like the blue light was significant before Missy was s…[Read more]

@lewis97   That is a very interesting observation, and you could well be right about its significance.  All the signs seem to point to there something being more to Clara’s exit from the story than we saw.  It seemed odd to me that, unless I missed something, the Doctor, having witnessed her death, went straight back inside to face Ash…[Read more]

I personally loved the episode and one thing that has been somewhat overlooked was Coleman’s superb acting throughout the episode. For instance when she was dying I felt like she was real and she was leaving us. This is one of the reasons why I personally don’t want her to return because it would feel too cheesy and unreal but her dying like this…[Read more]

@countscarlioni: Every single companion departure in the new series has happened in two parts, one sad, the second a little happier.  So there is hope for Clara.

I had missed the post of @jimmyp. Yes, of course.  And I agree that this is not a normal AG Who outcome. That is why I think it is Gatiss doing a version of a BG Who story. On the issue of the Doctor “losing” and 38th century Earth being threatened, I strongly feel that Gatiss has consciously written a m…[Read more]

Not really spoilery The Doctor knows there is something wrong. He’s not fooled

@countscarlioni

I’d missed the ‘Doctor Who’ in the coding. @DoctorDoctorWho spotted that; excellent catch!

Thanks for that correction. Excellent catch, indeed!

As for the episode itself, I enjoyed it. It made a lot more sense on second viewing. Of course, for me first viewing wasn’t ideal. I worked all day, while hubby cooked dinner for guest…[Read more]

@countscarlioni Right away I spotted Clara’s name listed in the downloaded names at the beginning, but I didn’t catch “Doctor Who” (shown horizontally, intersecting with Clara’s name) till my second viewing. And even then I had to hit “pause” to really see it. Good catch!

@countscarlioni If you look closely at the names at the beginning, “Doctor” is there, except it’s going vertically instead of horizontally.
